Darren Doyle, story:
Edmonson County Parks and Rec has announced that Freedom Fest 2017 has been set for Friday, June 30th at Chalybeate Park on KY HWY 743. Program Director and event coordinator Greg Hudson said he expects an even bigger crowd than last year and that park personnel and volunteers have been working for months to assemble the annual event.

"We're continually trying to improve our Parks and Rec Department and we're proud each year to provide Freedom Fest and our huge fireworks display to the public for free," he said. "We're thankful for our Park Champions and Park Hero sponsors for helping make the event possible."

Things will kick off at 2pm with volleyball tournament registration. The tournament will feature two divisions: ages 17 and under and ages 18 and up. Cost is $40 per team to enter. 

At 3pm, registration begins for a cornhole tournament, also with two divisions which will be the same age categories as the volleyball teams.

Vendors will be allowed to set up their booths beginning at 4pm, the cost of which is $20 per booth.

​The Little League Baseball/Softball awards presentation will begin at 6pm.

Local band "Double Nothin'" will perform live music beginning at 6pm and will play until 9pm, and the fireworks display will begin soon after.

Also added this year to the events is the "Independence 5K Run, 1 Mile Walk" that will take place the next day, Saturday, July 1. Packet pickup and registration will be at 7AM with the run beginning at 8AM and the walk at 9AM.
